you ppl are probalry forgeting that archers are support units. think of them as marines, while the infanties as the tanks. archers support your infanties(tanks) in battle.

archers can't fight head on, their use is to hide behind some infaty and shoot away. the #1 reason why i love to play as the nglish is because of the longbows, these guys kill the most ppl in my army. so the moral is if you use archer or any missle units correctly, they are deversating.

and i know i probabaly spell a lot of words wrong
